Four day holiday ended

Streets were full of people in the middle age market.

Four day holiday is now over. In Alcalá was middle age market from Friday to Monday. Because of this market we had free day on Friday. Market was arranged in the middle age spirit. There were sold many different products and traditional food in the stands. There was also possibility to see performances and theater.

On Monday was the national day of Spain. In Madrid was arranged military parade and I went to see that with David, Aritz who were in erasmus in Finland and Andrés. After parade I went to Museum of queen Sofia with David. There I saw the famous painting of Picasso called Guernica. In the museum I liked the most the paintings of Dali.

  2. Salvador Dali (right?) paintings are really likable. Then again Dali himself was a great character in his own right. If I had moustache like he had...

    He also has made some short movies which are bizarre and strangely entertaining at the same time. You might have heard about his Andalusian dog and the (in)famous eye scene?

  4. Took me a second to understand what you meant about middle age. I'm under the impression that middle age refers in the age of a man. Medieval is the word to use when you mean to talk about the time period. "Middle Ages" with capital letters is also correct. Sorry...the teacher in me ran for the keyboard :)
